Recycling

In Rocklin, trash is sorted at the
Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) and everything that can be
recycled is sorted and processed automatically without you having
to sort anything. That’s why we only have One Big Bin for trash and
recycling!

Put Recyclables in Your Trash OR Bring Recyclables to the
Western Placer Waste Management
Authority (WPWMA). WPWMA is a regional agency that
provides recycling and waste disposal services for Lincoln,
Rocklin, Roseville and Placer County. WPWMA operates
a Material Recovery Facility (MRF), pronounced ‘murf’,
located at the landfill to help Placer County meet the
state’s waste reduction goals.

Newspaper Recycling

The city has a newspaper recycling drop off area in
Johnson-Springview Park behind the baseball fields at 5460 5th
Street.

To get there, go to the back of the parking lot closest to the
baseball fields and drive through the gate towards the gravel
lot.

Cardboard Recycling

Recology (the provider of trash pick-up in the
city) offers free curbside pick-up of cardboard. Simply
place flattened cardboard in a 3×3 or smaller pile next to your
toter on trash collection day and it will be collected free
of charge.

Convenient Drop-Off Locations

Recycling centers are conveniently located throughout the
region where you can recycle CRV cans, bottles, glass,
PETE plastic, cardboard and newspapers. View a list of these and
other drop-off sites at the national website, or
